Child Development Research Unit

Attention Parents!

Did you know that injuries are the leading cause of preventable deaths throughout childhood? The Child Development Research Unit (CDRU) at the University of Guelph conducts research to identify the best ways to ensure children’s safety and prevent injuries. We want you and your children to join us in our injury prevention research!

We have fun research studies involving parents, infants, children, and teens and will work around your schedule to find a time that is convenient for you. You will also be compensated for your time. There are many ways that you can get involved:
